I think the theme is completely feasible.
It's possible that since the machines have taken over, the Resistance is forced to start again from the bare bones, hence the wooden coaster idea. I may be reaching, but it's the way that I see it as working if they are going to make the ride fit the theming.
That said, those are some sexy trains... can't wait to see these things test.
Sincerely,
R.C.
You hit the nail on the head. The theme makes perfect sense.

Magic Mountain needs to get into Real Estate development. The market for real estate never goes down. How many of you would kill for a house on a man made lake where you have a view of the park? And within Walking distance?
In my opinion, it would be cool at first, but the novelty would wear off quickly. This goes for any park, not just Magic Mountain. It would be cool to live close to a park, but not next door to one, especially a major one. The constant noise, commotion, construction, traffic, etc. might get annoying after a while.
Okay, let's just go with a Hotel and add a brand new theme park next door. People need a reason to extend their stay in the area. Make it a RESORT, not just a 6 hours and you're out roller coater park.

I'll like to see free wi-fi through out the Park, now that iPhone/PDA/Blackberry's etc, are so popular today. AIG Vice Presidents can visit Six Flags during the business day and get work done as they are enjoying the rides.

The Tidal Wave location would be great for an attraction similar to Disneyland's Autopia. I get nostalgic for fossil fuel powered vehicles now that everyone is driving electric cars. Kids will be asking, "Dad, where do you plug it in?"

I just glad they dumped the annoying Asian guy.

I think they should put everyone that enters SFMM in an electric scooter chair and unlimited slurpees all day.

Time to re-hab the Log-Jammer. Theme it up with some dark ride elements. Have it go inside buildings and have a soundtrack.
-
When do they usually re-open Roarin' Rapids? I'm guessing they are just closed for the winter and they aren't actually upgrading anything on the ride? Correct?
-
A little off-topic, but rainy days are some of the best days to go to Disneyland. It helps keeps the crowds away.

The last few years Ghostrider has been jerky and rough. It was a nice coaster when it opened, but it had gone down hill in a hurry.

Does anyone know if I can use my season parking pass at other six flags parks?
Also, at SFMM, can I tow an RV Trailer in and just pay the difference between cars and RV's with my parking pass? I'm thinking about catching some ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ's in the Trailer while the teens run around the park. Looks like you get better parking and sometimes covered.

When I was there last week I noticed a Surveyor Team just inside the Batman Ride entrance. The only thing I can think they were doing is surveying to install those new Q-Bot Machines.
The new Qbot system no longer requires the Q-Bot kiosks to be installed. I'm pretty sure they have now been either removed or no longer used at the other parks that have switched over to the new Q-Bot system.

Okay, I don't know what they were doing there than. They were right inside the entrance to the left. Could be some more theming going in? How about making Batman an indoor ride?

Anyone remember the menu they had at Laughing Dragon? Was is strictly pizza or did they have other items?
I remember attempting to eat there once in November 2000, but the wait was too long.
At one time it was a Steak House.
It's an O.K. location for views of Log Jammer and now Tatsu. I wish they would theme it out a little. A steak restaurant might be all right. I would look at Disney restaurants for inspiration.
Pizza? I think making it a Pizza place is a waste.
Or for something different: How about making it a Hooters?

On expanding the park with more rides. I haven't been there in awhile. But can't they put some coasters/flume rides outside in the parking lot with the cue lines and stations inside the dome? This could mean bigger and better coasters, etc.

I was thinking of holidaying up the Gotham District. Add some fake snow and add some Christmas Decorations. And there's always everyone favorite Christmas song...
Jingle Bells
Batman Smells
Robin Laid an Egg
The Batmobile Lost a Wheel
And Joker got away

We went this last Saturday and were averaging a ride every 10 minutes, the first two hours. I'm in my 40's and I was getting a little tired. We hit Goliath, Collosses, Scream, Batman, Riddler, Gold Rush in less than a hour. No lines, and it was like a ghost town. Maybe the cold and the short hours kept people away. We left super early.
Maybe Six Flags should try some different things to get people into the park for the Holidays. It's too bad they can't transform the park into a winter wonderland. I was disappointed (even I knew) that their wasn't more Christmas theming around the park. I wonder how festive New Years Eve will be, if they don't decorate it up a bit?
Also, it might be a good idea to get more people into the park, maybe giveaway free passes to the military, like Knotts and Busch Gardens/Seaworld do.
